Wednesday morning

It's just under 60 degrees at 6:00 A.M. and very foggy, down here in "Whiskey Hollow." If you've got a morning commute, you might need a few extra minutes.


If you're planning on traveling to the Southeast.............


There's an article in today's Observer-Dispatch about the Old Tannery in West Winfield
that will be of interest to some Watervillians!

And it turns out that more villagers than I'd have thought are following the US Open and watching Andre Agassi in his final tournament.

The Yankees' game was rained out, last night and Boston, losing to the A's 2 - 1, is now 7.5 GB and seems to simply be going down the drain.



An article in yesterday's Post-Standard caught our eye:
"POWER LINE FOES PLAN TOUR OF NINE MILE SWAMP

A citizens group opposed to a 200-mile power line will give a tour Sept. 10 of Brookfield's Nine Mile Swamp, through which the line would cross.

Most of the swamp is accessible only by canoe or kayak. A group opposed to the line, STOP NYRI Inc., and Colgate's Outdoor Education Program and Rogers Environmental Education Center will sponsor the trip through the swamp. The cost is $5 per person. Boats and life vests will be provided. One tour will leave from Sherburne at 9:00 a.m. and another from Colgate at 10:00. To register, call the Rogers Center at 607/674-4017."

I imagine that there will be a limit to the number of people that can be accomodated, so if you want to be part of the tour you should probably phone now!
